St. John's

St. John's is a town created in version X by Flindark and is located on the island of Newfoundland, off of the East Coast of Canada. It was created originally as a colony of the kingdom of England, although usually saw more trade and discussion with towns from the United States, due to proximity and convenience. It is known as the closest North American town to Europe.



Creation
St. John's was created very early in version X's history as a trading hub and a claim of English land in north America. It's resources were very minimal in the beginning, with the only blocks in the environment of Newfoundland being sand, coarse dirt, dirt, gravel and clay. However, due to well managed trade and landscaping, the island soon became full with trees and contains a sustainable amount of potato farming. Soon after the first few houses and church was built, exploration for ores lead to a mining and logging camp being created in eastern Labrador.

North American Relations
Over time, St. John's lost relations with England and became close to the United States, specifically Boston. Onderzeeboot, the Leader of Boston and the United States, traded frequently with St John's, usually with Flindark receiving food for ores, as cultivation of food was difficult in Newfoundland. To St John's surprise, England had decided to relinquish power over all of their one man towns, which lead to the town joining France, on the terms that they would send a player to help build the town. However, soon after, realizing that there was little point in investing in European relations, Flindark turned to the newly founded Trade Union (also known as the James Company or the Atlantic Federation), with the rest of France joining the Trade Union shortly after.

Expansion Under the Trade Union, St. John's saw great growth. Shortly after joining, St. John's recruited two players, Jvenom and CYL, which helped expand the town greatly. Meanwhile Flindark held economic and diplomatic relations with Lemon_Shot and was named CEO of the Trade Union, which left a lot of power within such a small town.



The Town would be then formed into 4 different zones:
 * St. John's - The oldest area of the town, on the East Coast.
 * Conception Bay - The North Harbour, along with City Hall.
 * Mount Pearl - Named after the hill on which it stands, it is similar to St. John's, although divided by a great wall.
 * Trinity Bay - Currently under development, it will most likely be used for fishing and adding a small harbour. Also has the beginning of the road that leads to Western Newfoundland, on the way to Halifax.
